I Wish I Could Stay Longer - Interview With German GIZ Volunteer Theresa Ekpa

In a 26 minutes long and very personal interview, 19 year old German Development Volunteer Theresa Ekpa talks about the experiences she made during her one year stay - which has come close to an end - in the second biggest township of South Africa, Mdantsane. Theresa was part of a volunteer program of the GIZ (German Cooperation For Internationl Development) and lived with a guest family in Mdantsane.
She has come in contact with a multitude of new things, that have changed her thinking and the way she approaches life.

We have enjoyed her open, unpretentious and refreshing way of talking and as we have said before: this 19 year old young lady has some considerable presence for her age.
